Anyway, like I said before – get the basics down, then start timing yourself.
When you’re ready to finally ready to kick things up a notch, replicating exam conditions and timing is incredibly useful, but remember…
BUILD THE FOUNDATION FIRST!!
Then look at how you can replicate the exam conditions, but it isn’t all about timing.
The vast majority of students make the same fatal mistake during their studies and when it comes to test day, they’re suddenly hit with a situation they’re not prepared for.
Any guesses? I’ll give you a clue; it’s so simple, yet so overlooked…
Anyone?
…
…Scratch paper!
That’s right. Many students write in their books drawing out tiny little logic game diagrams, using the limited space provided. But guys…on the Digital LSAT
YOU'LL GET SCRATCH PAPER ON THE TEST!
So what do you do on test day when you’re used to creating tiny diagrams in your books, but you suddenly discover (to your pleasant surprise) that you've got a full booklet of scratch paper to work with?
Of course, better to have more space than you need than less, but always best to practice like it's game day.
It’s essential to get used to using the amount of space provided during your studies.
In this way, when test day comes along you know exactly how to work with the space provided by the test. And, with some sensible practices you can preserve all of your prep books – bonus!
So, get used to your scratch paper.
Okay guys, that’s all today, nice and easy, but incredibly important for reducing stress on test day and working effectively with what the LSAT throws at you. So for the Digital LSAT, no more need to squeeze all your info into tight spaces + shrinking the size of your handwriting - you’ll be fine!
Next time, we’ll get back to tackling logic games. I’ve got some great tips and tricks lined up that will have you blasting through logic games in less than seven minutes!
Yours,
